“…Previous CS is becoming the most common indication for CS [1], confirming the age old dictum proposed by Edward Craigin in 1914 ''Once a cesarean always a cesarean.'' Although the absolute risk of uterine dehiscence/rupture in lower segment CS is very low (0.2-1.5 %) [4], the unpredictable nature of this complication and its grave consequences for both mother and baby has resulted in decreased rates of trial of labor after CS (TOLAC) in many countries [5].…”

Objectives:To determine the frequency of successful Vaginal Birth after One Cesarean Section in our tertiary care institution and to determine the causes of its failure. Material and Methods: This study was conducted in department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Shifa International Hospital and Shifa Foundation Community Health Centre Islamabad Pakistan from Feb 2011 to Dec 2014. This study included 592 patients who presented in labor room emergency reception of Obs/Gynae department at term with previous one scar having fulfilled the laid down inclusion criteria for VBAC during ante-natal care. The patients were admitted in hospital and were allowed to proceed for spontaneous labor under vigilant monitoring on complications of trial of scar. Immediate emergency cesarean sections were performed, where indicated. Results: Out of 592 patients 70.7% were delivered vaginally after previous one cesarean section and 29.3% had emergency cesarean section. Leading indications for repeat cesarean section was fetal distress, failure to progress and scar tenderness. No maternal and fetal complication occurred in our study. The success rate of Trial of labor after one previous cesarean delivery was lower in obese (64.38%) as compared to non-obese women (82.06%) (p<0.001). Women with previous successful vaginal delivery had a success rate of 88.2% compared with 62.25% in women without such a history (OR 4.4; 95% CI 2.7-7.2 p <0.001). Conclusion: Vaginal birth after one lower segment cesarean section should be encouraged with vigilant monitoring provided no obstetric contra-indication to vaginal birth exists.Keywords: (VBAC) Vaginal birth after cesarean section; trial of labor after previous cesarean delivery (TOLAC); uterine rupture, uterine dehiscence; lower segment cesarean section (LSCS).

“…9,10 But reports are conflicting and these factors along with medico legal concerns have led to a decline in clinician"s attitude for offering VBAC and also women not accepting trial for VBAC in various parts of the world. 11,12 The present study evaluated the outcome and trends in patients with a history of prior LSCS who delivered in KEM Hospital from January 2015 to December 2015. Out of 7680 patients who delivered in our hospital during the study period, 588 term patients had a history of one previous LSCS, accounting for 8.6% of the total number of patients.…”
